Hello R-help I am working with large data table that have the occasional label, a particular time point in an experiment. E.g:
"Time (min)", "R1 R1", "R2 R1", "R3 R1", "R4 R1" .909, 1.117, 1.225, 1.048, 1.258 3.942, 1.113, 1.230, 1.049, 1.262 3.976, 1.105, 1.226, 1.051, 1.259 4.009, 1.114, 1.231, 1.053, 1.259 4.042, 1.107, 1.230, 1.048, 1.262 4.076, 1.108, 1.226, 1.045, 1.257 4.109, 1.109, 1.227, 1.047, 1.259 4.142, 1.108, 1.225, 1.052, 1.260 4.176, 1.105, 1.222, 1.046, 1.260 4.209, 1.106, 1.226, 1.050, 1.258 4.242, 1.105, 1.224, 1.047, 1.258 4.276, 1.104, 1.223, 1.048, 1.259 4.309, 1.106, 1.228, 1.050, 1.260 4.342, 1.103, 1.219, 1.049, 1.260 4.376, 1.107, 1.225, 1.052, 1.259 4.409, 1.105, 1.222, 1.047, 1.258 4.442, 1.106, 1.227, 1.048, 1.262 4.476, 1.105, 1.222, 1.049, 1.261 4.509, 1.102, 1.222, 1.047, 1.259 4.555, "Gly sar" 4.555, 1.107, 1.224, 1.048, 1.261 4.576, 1.109, 1.228, 1.053, 1.259 4.609, 1.103, 1.218, 1.046, 1.258 4.642, 1.105, 1.223, 1.048, 1.256 4.676, 1.108, 1.217, 1.048, 1.260 4.709, 1.124, 1.222, 1.047, 1.258 When I try to read in the table, I get: > try<-read.table("200810_01.R",header=T,sep=",") Error in scan(file, what, nmax, sep, dec, quote, skip, nlines, na.strings, : line 136 did not have 5 elements Is there any way to tell R to ignore these labels or better still interpret them as being label for particular time points, so when it comes to draw a line graph it is annotated with these labels.
